Here are some pics of my JR Industries triple pillar pod and gauges installed and working. The bottome gauge is for oil pressure and is not connected yet as I have to drill and tap a fitting for the sending unit. I like the looks of the gauges and they work well.

The top one is AFR. I tapped the signal from the ECU (CN4 pin 15) for the gauge. It was mentioned to me that tapping might pull the signal down to the ECU, so I hooked up my ODB reader and monitored the O2 sensor numbers as I revved the engine and the numbers for both sensors tracked each other. Others have used this signal also. So I believe that all is well and not causing an issue. I may opt to install a bung and a wideband sensor later. During a drive it says my AFR is about 12.7 - 13.0 crusing at speed. When I punch it it goes to about 10.5 to 11. I need to get the car on the dyno and see what the AFR is during WOT. I just added the 240 moded intakes and may need to adjust my tune more.

The middle gauge is boost. I tapped the Y pipe for the fitting (in gallery). This one was pretty easy to do.

The push button on the gauges work well and the top two are right next to my hand during driving. I can change by just sticking my finger out and hitting them. The bottom one I have to reach a little. The gauges are positioned very well for viewing while driving. And the color matches the car perfectly. (note that it also matches my console!)

If you are looking at installing gauges and want a great looking and functioning pillar pod, get hold of Jonny & Rudy.

This has not been a paid political announcement. Just a very satisfied customer. (who finally hooked up the gauges).

Thanks again Mike, glad you got it all put together. Looks really good. I have actually grown to like the red more then the green I dont know why... But the blue looks vibrant too

SIDE note looking at the pictures reminds me of what I forgot to do lol I need to start putting stuff into a planner. I will get the button to you next week sorry buddy.

 

MrPhotoman, yes they go to green. I just forgot to set them for the pic. I kind of like the blue too though.

Jonny, Rudy has a switch in the mail to me. (or so he says...)

I really like the Aero accents for the interior. Everyone who sees it comments how good it looks. Thanks again for the great paint job.

i seen a set of those at MIR a few weeks back, they are really nice gauges.

 

Damn, you SRT6 guys are lucky; your stock speedo goes up to 200 MPH. The C32 / SLK32's only go up to 180 MPH

 

It went out Friday for you, I thought I PM'd you tracking info. If I didn't I'll PM it to you.

 

Rudy, I was just yanking your chain.

MikeR

 

Well I had to look because I thought I sent you a PM and then I started second guessing if I did or not when I red your post. I was running all over hell between getting that in the mail and finishing up other stuff for work before the weekend. LOL

 

WOWW! YOUR CAR IS A BEAST!! and a VERY PRETTY ONE too! they look AWESOME!!! and your console..

i'm definitely jealous!!!

 

Mike I have come back to this thread and your gallery probably 8 times now TODAY lol I CANT GET OVER THAT BLUE, I think I am in love.....................

Side note "Thread Jack" How much and how do I get one of your dip clips ?

 

Another testament to JR industries quality products.

 

Glad both you guys are happy with your products. 240, when do we get to see those bad boys installed?

 

Jonny, I have a spare dip clip on the bench. PM me you address.

That's so not fair!!! I want one too! LOL He needs one more than I do though, I've got my own little fix made up. Definitely not as cool looking as yours but it works.
